63. That's just one part of the storm.

It's not just the rain, it's the wind, and the tides, and the flooding, the tornados that pop up, the hail storms.... and the low hanging electric lines, and the old trees with poor root systems....it takes a lot of different inputs to cause the damage with a really good storm.

There are a ton of variables that enter into the mess of a school shooting, too.

By laying the "blame" at the feet of the drugs, by giving them "pride of place," and highlighting them to the exclusion of other issues, you are creating an accusatory sense, here and people are quite rightly taking exception to this. Most people who take those drugs don't run around killing people with assault rifles. In fact, the overwhelming majority do not.

We could just as easily lay the "blame" on bad parents, or bullying/mocking in school, too many video games, being white and male, or a host of other variables that pretty much make up your typical school shooter. Or we could blame physicians who prescribe these drugs without ascertaining how much support the child is getting in the school and home environment.

A cup of flour is not a cake, after all. There are many ingredients and it takes all of 'em to create the confection.
